A '''Hated''' role is a role that requires less than the usual amount of votes to be lynched.  
The '''Hated''' modifier makes it so that a player requires one less vote than normal to lynch.  For example, if there are seven players alive, most players will require four votes to be lynched but a Hated player will only require three.


Usually, a [[lynch]] is when a majority of votes (half + 1 of the total amount of players) is reached. Hated townies typically get lynched before 1 vote before that majority.  
Some [[bastard mod|bastard mods]] will use this as a hidden modifier.


This is usually ancillary to the primary [[Role]] for that player; for example, if the Moderator decides the [[Miller]] will not hated, then he is called a ''hated miller''.
==Variations==
Some moderators have attempted to create "Super Hated", "Ultra Hated", or outright "Fragile" modifiers that describe players that require two fewer votes to lynch, three fewer votes to lynch, or simply one or two votes to lynch, but there is no standardization here.
 
While this does not appear except with the "Super Hated"-type modifiers, it is not standardized if zero or one is the minimum number of votes required to lynch someone.  For example, it is not clear whether someone actually has to vote a Super Hated Townie in order to lynch them at three-player LyLo (2 to lynch).
 
==Use and Power==
Hated players are easier to lynch.  It's a simple way to weaken a role, albeit one that's not necessarily fun for the player.  However, Hated Townies can cause problems by causing [[LyLo]] to occur earlier.  If a seven-player LyLo consists of three Townies, one Hated Townie, and three scum; the scum have already won if they know who the Hated Townie is.  (This is not to say that the scum should simply [[endgame]] the Town in this case, as they may not be aware of one of the players being Hated.)
 
==Play Advice==
It is debatable whether it is better to not claim Hated Townie.  By not claiming you are opening yourself up to getting run up to L-1 and thus unexpectedly lynched; by claiming you are making yourself a policy lynch on the Day before LyLo.

The Hated modifier makes it so that a player requires one less vote than normal to lynch. For example, if there are seven players alive, most players will require four votes to be lynched but a Hated player will only require three.

Some bastard mods will use this as a hidden modifier.

Variations

Some moderators have attempted to create "Super Hated", "Ultra Hated", or outright "Fragile" modifiers that describe players that require two fewer votes to lynch, three fewer votes to lynch, or simply one or two votes to lynch, but there is no standardization here.

While this does not appear except with the "Super Hated"-type modifiers, it is not standardized if zero or one is the minimum number of votes required to lynch someone. For example, it is not clear whether someone actually has to vote a Super Hated Townie in order to lynch them at three-player LyLo (2 to lynch).

Use and Power

Hated players are easier to lynch. It's a simple way to weaken a role, albeit one that's not necessarily fun for the player. However, Hated Townies can cause problems by causing LyLo to occur earlier. If a seven-player LyLo consists of three Townies, one Hated Townie, and three scum; the scum have already won if they know who the Hated Townie is. (This is not to say that the scum should simply endgame the Town in this case, as they may not be aware of one of the players being Hated.)

Play Advice

It is debatable whether it is better to not claim Hated Townie. By not claiming you are opening yourself up to getting run up to L-1 and thus unexpectedly lynched; by claiming you are making yourself a policy lynch on the Day before LyLo.
